The late afternoon sun cuts through the high gymnasium windows, laying bars of gold across the bleachers. The air carries the scent of sweat and polished wood. You sit alone until a group of boys files in, their collective gaze locking onto you. A girl slides onto the bench beside you, her whisper soft against the quiet. "They're staring because Joon-ho likes you," she says. You ask her who that is. She nods toward the tall figure at the center of the group—silver eyes already fixed on you, unblinking. He does not look away.
